Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

$50 says that he doesn’t end up in LA next season. That’s not me saying he’ll stay in Toronto either.

If it’s too much money for you high rollers, I’ll settle for something else.

I got $200 that says he doesn’t end up with the Lakers next season.

Magic and Pelinka, (mainly Pelinka) when you listen to them, talk about patience and building your team from within, like the Warriors.

Miss me with these Ric Bucher’s And David Aldridge, “my sources”...

We just went through an off season where

Day 1- Sources say Kawhi wants to be be a Laker

Day 2- Sources say Kawhi really wants to be a Laker now that Lebron is there

Day 3- Sources say Kawhi not too big on playing second fiddle to Lebron, prefers Clippers

Day 4- Sources say Kawhi still wants to be a Laker despite Lebron

Day 5- Sources say Kawhi would resign in Philadelphia

Day 6- Sources say Kawhi not signing anywhere but with the Lakers (or the Clippers)



HOOPLAH I TELL YOU

If teams acquire a player in a trade, they are allowed to trade that player straight-up for another individual player immediately. However, if teams wish to package that player with another and make a trade, they must wait 60 days before doing so.


Also i guess if you sign a player with an exception instead of cap space the 60 day timer applies also.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Saw someone on Twitter saying they believe the Raptors traded for Kawhi not so that they could only have him for one season, but so they could trade him to the Lakers for young players like Kuzma or Ingram.

Not sure if this is just a totally wild, out of thin air assumption or if he has some sort of inside source, but either way it sounds like it’d be a very smart move for the Raptors.
.

It's just speculation with nothing to back it up though former Raptor Alvin Williams suggested this as happening before the season starts.


Anywho, i'm with Pack on that $20 bet. In fact, I bet $50 bucks that Leonard doesn't end up with the Lakers.

A good read regarding agents and why they leak information, how often they leak false information and all that Jazz.

Like I said earlier... HOOPLAH

Oklahoma City has agreed to trade Carmelo Anthony and a protected 2022 first-round pick to Atlanta for point guard Dennis Schroder and Mike Muscala, league sources tell ESPN. Anthony will be waived, and he will join team of his choice. Rockets are frontrunner.

Two teams get rid of their headaches.

I feel like there's another Schroder trade during the season. He's going to want to start.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

Yall quit bashing my boy Schroder now I will have none of that

It looks like a good trade for all sides and props for getting the 1st round pick back which is top 14 protected in 2022. If it isn't it will become two 2nds.

looks like Muscala is now going to the 76ers, TLC to OKC and Justin Anderson to the Hawks

Oh good, I hope Melo goes to Houston and screws everything up there. Lord knows he's talented but the man has so much baggage it isn't even funny.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

I don't get why the 76ers would trade TLC and Justin Anderson for Muscala ? I get the fit because he will the role that Iryson had and the 76ers had 16 people under contract. I'm just surprised they gave up both players.

Re: 2018 Off-Season Thread

TLC and JA had no role on the team and they are clogged at the 2 with an over the limit roster and they needed a backup big that can stretch the floor so its a good move on their part.


Cant wait to see houston finish as a 7/8 or even miss the playoffs because cp3 cant stay healthy and melo turns into dwight 2.0 with his ego blowing up teams.
